But as a man who in a Lottery
Hath ventur'd of his coyne, ere he haue ought,
Thinkes this or that shall with his Prize be bought,
And so enricht, march with the better ranke,
When sodainly he's call'd, and all is Blanke:
To chaste Marina, so doth Fortune proue,
Statesmen and she are neuer firme in loue.
